(IRSD): Areas of economic

and social disadvantage at a

suburb level

(ICSEA): A school’s relative

socio-educational advantage.

A higher ICSEA indicates a

school has a relatively higher

level of educational

advantage

(ADII): The level of digital

inclusion to a local

government area level

Students at recipient schools are more likely to encounter barriers of

access and affordability which can lead to experiencing digital

exclusion. A similar correlation (subject to a greater sample data set), can

be drawn for other schools residing within areas of greater relative socio-

economic disadvantage. IRSD data supports the ADII data in determining

the extent of socio-economic disadvantage associated with digital exclusion.

50% of recipient schools are located in local government areas

(LGAs) that are less digitally included than their peers across their

respective state (ADII).

All 6 schools are located in suburbs identified as having greater relative

socio-economic disadvantage (IRSD). This indicates these suburbs

experience relatively greater proportions of households with low income,

lower educational attainment, high unemployment and jobs in relatively

unskilled qualifications.

Most schools who received donated laptops are located in suburbs of greater

relative socio-economic disadvantage, which can often lead to barriers

surrounding affordability and access to ICTs.
